Very sad to read this. Charlie was a truly lovely man, with a heart of gold.
His courage and generosity, and his profound humanity really shone through over the past number of years. He was extraordinary.
Heartfelt condolences to his family and to all who knew and loved him.
@SenatorMcDowell@IrishTimes If its a decision between retaining, or repealing Article 41.2, then it would be wholly appropriate to repeal this article and send a strong message that gendered and misogynistic views of women have no place in society.
Holy Moly @paulmurphy_TD is playing a blinder. Naming names and calling out those who agitated for trouble the night of the riot.
Special mention for coming up with "crèche creeper, dog kicker" to describe one particular loathsome individual 😆
He also gives Mattie McGrath a lash
Irish MEP @ClareDalyMEP spells it out clearly and without equivocation.
Unless real political and economic action is taken now, History will remember every EU Leader as being complicit in the #Gaza_Genocide

Last year, working in Ireland, having a pint in the cold outside a Dalkey pub with some new friends, a woman with purpose strode past us. Puffy parker zipped to the nape and her bowed head covered in a scarf. One of my new friends muttered an exclamation, jumped up
Entertained by the idea that women who assert the importance of biological sex are talking in ‘largely academic terms.’ Isn’t ‘lived experience’ the gold standard before which all other data must bow? Or is it only possible for a woman to experience her life if she’s got a penis?
Castigating a politician over a €1000 euros in 2016. The man has dedicated his time in politics to sorting out our economy. 4.2% unemployment is full employment. Our economy is the envy of Europe and we didn’t rob a bank or killed a Garda yo get there. Just saying.
@hoskas Definitely go to Trastevere area for dinner and book the Colosseum Tour for three hours. Lorenza delivers the tour and it brings Colosseum to life
